AFRICA\'S EDEN\'s LOANGO LODGE AND CAMPS RE-OPEN
Libreville, September 21st, 2011 – Africa’s Eden announced today that it will re-open its Loango Lodge in Gabon for international guests on 15 December 2011. Africa’s Eden, which is the pioneer of safari tourism to Gabon, had suspended its operation in mid-2010 following access difficulties. These difficulties have now been resolved and reliable aviation connections have been re-established.
The reopening of Africa’s Eden flagship Loango Lodge and satellite camps are accompanied by an improvement project exceeding € 1 Million which is currently in full swing. The improvements include, amongst others, a full interior refurbishment of rooms and public areas, an extension of the lodge’s runway, the increase of Loango School capacity and the creation of over 130 jobs, thus taking up its role as the area’s main employer again.
Loango Lodge, its satellite camps as well as the lowland gorilla sanctuary Evengué Lodge, offer an unrivalled, exclusive nature experience. Africa’s Eden, winner of the British Guild of Travel Writers’ Award and finalist in the National Geographic Changemakers’ Tourism Challenge, expects that within 12 months the size of its operation will reach previous levels of around 10,000 bed-nights per year. Once again, passionate travellers will be able to experience the unique, diverse and intact eco-systems in and around Loango National Park.
